lol, im downloading another file - thats why i said "downloading a huge file" - its a version of red hat linux, i might try it out on one of the laptops i just fixed - its about 3.25 gigs

edit: its a version of centos actually, its 3.6 gigs to be more exact

nah..lol, that'll probably take me 5 seconds - 15 max because they have good upload speeds and i have better download speeds

i would like to know what the current record is too lol, didn't even know they kept records for most downloaded file in one day

According to my brother(take with grain of salt) they are the first to do so..so they break it by default. Anyone know what the latest marketshare of FF2 was against Windows 7 /Opera?

I have no idea.
Is there any way to know before time is done?

If someone has the Guinness book of world records they could pop it open and look. That is if its even in there as jancoke's brother said.

lol...browsers aren't ever full of them - Internet Explorer is vulnerable so it lets viruses in - firefox is pretty safe compared to IE.
